Tofer,That was the only case I used mine also. I guess it would work ok if you want to start and run the truck without climbing inside, Just don't forget to take it out of gear.

I use it for both of those scenarios, or if I'm just too lazy to push the clutch in to start it.

I've wired mine to eject unruly rear passengers. "Idiot Cancel" button. It's funny when their heads hit the rollbar on the way out.....

I have to remember that one.

I have used the button when my master cylinder went out on me. I put in gear at a stop sign and start it, once I got to a certain RPM it would shift up fine. (Not good for tranny, but got me home) When coming to a stop, I would pull it out of gear and shut it off and start all over again. Luckily it went out when I was on backroads with no traffic.
